The World War II Navy vet-turned character actor, who also appeared on the original Mission: Impossible TV series, was 94.
In a statement obtained by The Hollywood Reporter, L&O producer Dick Wolf said, “Steven was not only one of the truly great actors of his generation, he was one of the most intelligent people I have ever met…He will be missed but fortunately he can be seen ubiquitously on Law & Order reruns.”
